Fromer* Abstract: Copyright law, which promotes the creation of cultural and artistic works by protecting these works from being copied, excuses infringement that is deemed to be a fair use. Whether an otherwise infringing work is a fair use is determined by courts weighing at least four factors, one of which is the effect of the otherwise infringing work on the market for the copyrighted work. The Supreme Court’s decision just over twenty years ago in Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music, Inc. opened the door to a laudable analytical framework for the bearing of market effects on fair use. First, Campbell supports a more full-bodied investigation of the market effects—both harms and benefits—of defendants’ works on plaintiffs’ copyrighted works.

  • Serial Historiography: Literature, Narrative History, and the Anxiety of Truth
    SERIAL HISTORIOGRAPHY: LITERATURE, NARRATIVE HISTORY, AND THE ANXIETY OF TRUTH James Benjamin Bolling A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English and Comparative Literature. Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: Minrose Gwin Jennifer Ho Megan Matchinske John McGowan Timothy Marr ©2016 James Benjamin Bolling ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Ben Bolling: Serial Historiography: Literature, Narrative History, and the Anxiety of Truth (Under the direction of Megan Matchinske) Dismissing history’s truths, Hayden White provocatively asserts that there is an “inexpugnable relativity” in every representation of the past. In the current dialogue between literary scholars and historical empiricists, postmodern theorists assert that narrative is enclosed, moribund, and impermeable to the fluid demands of history. My critical intervention frames history as a recursive, performative process through historical and critical analysis of the narrative function of seriality. Seriality, through the material distribution of texts in discrete components, gives rise to a constellation of entimed narrative strategies that provide a template for human experience. I argue that serial form is both fundamental to the project of history and intrinsically subjective. Rather than foreclosing the historiographic relevance of storytelling, my reading of serials from comic books to the fiction of William Faulkner foregrounds the possibilities of narrative to remain open, contingent, and responsive to the potential fortuities of historiography. In the post-9/11 literary and historical landscape, conceiving historiography as a serialized, performative enterprise controverts prevailing models of hermeneutic suspicion that dominate both literary and historiographic skepticism of narrative truth claims and revives an ethics responsive to the raucous demands of the past.

  • Workshop of Potential Scholarship: Manifesto for a Parametric Videographic Criticism
    EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF MEDIA STUDIES www.necsus-ejms.org Workshop of Potential Scholarship: Manifesto for a parametric videographic criticism Alan O’Leary NECSUS 10 (1), Spring 2021: 75–98 URL: https://necsus-ejms.org/workshop-of-potential-scholarship- manifesto-for-a-parametric-videographic-criticism/ Abstract This article sets out the rationale for a videographic scholarship (the audiovisual study of screen media) that adopts constraint-based or ‘parametric’ procedures, and concludes with a short manifesto com- posed according to the simple constraint of division into ten equal segments of 50 words each. The article situates a parametric practice in relation to OuLiPo (a group founded in the early 1960s to explore constraint-based approaches to writing), to pataphysics (an absurdist branch of knowledge concerned with what eludes understanding by conventional means), to themes in the digital humanities, and to the posthuman. And it issues a call to forge an ‘agonistic society’ of vide- ographic scholars who goad each other to greater achievement through the conspicuous and wasteful expenditure of resources of knowledge. Keywords: constraints, cyborg, Donna Haraway, enactment, OuLiPo, pataphysics, posthuman, potlatch, video essay Introduction: OuScholPo This essay proposes a rationale for a constraint-based or ‘parametric’ practice of videographic scholarship and is followed by a 500-word manifesto com- posed according to the simple constraint of division into ten equal segments of 50 words each.

  • Videographic Scholarship And/As Digital Humanities
    Videographic Scholarship and/as Digital Humanities Steve F. Anderson For cinema and media studies scholars, the emergence of two areas of scholarly practice—namely videographic scholarship and the Digital Humanities (DH)—has created opportunities for new forms of argumentation, analysis and research, as well as new venues for the dissemination of scholarly output related to the study of the moving image. While videographic scholarship and DH overlap in many ways, they also remain distinct, with few scholar-practitioners actively working in both realms. How can we understand this separation and begin to imagine a more productive relationship between them? Key to our understanding of both videographic scholarship and DH is the ongoing cultural contestation between images and data, bearing important implications for the ways each practice stakes claims about its access to new ways of knowing, researching and presenting information. I explore here some of those distinctions and overlaps, and suggest that the primarily image-based practice of videographic scholarship would benefit from adapting a process of serial review and revision derived from early experiments with data-based digital scholarship. Adapting these protocols to the specific needs of videographic scholarship would better support the scholarly benefits of process, evaluation and collaboration. The center of gravity in today’s understanding of DH lies with large-scale, computational analysis of machine-readable data (think of text-encoding initiatives in which vast collections of literary works are converted into searchable data). The “digital” in this understanding of DH offers one way 2 to bring computation into partnership with humanistic inquiry. However, this is not the only possible framework for recognizing the potential contributions of computation to the humanities.
